morten storm's part for the cia begins here in denmark. >> in the country side, i go play in the beach, the forest, there were plenty of facilities for sport. and that is what i did. >> age 7, typical boy. loves laser tag, but behind the smile there is trouble. >> i grew up with no dad. >> how did that affect you?

>> it affected me emotionally. you feel frustrated and angry. >> seemingly hard working, selling vegetables at market at age 13. but he is already committing armed robbery. >> armed robbery. >> armed robbery, what was going through your head? >> i felt -- the adrenalin, the excitement. >> adrenalin and anger become morten storm's trademarks. by his early teens he was a boxer. >> boxing was a way to get out my aggressions. >> so your fighting was not limited to the ring then. >> it was not limited to the ring. >> first time i met him, he was kind of a crazy person. and he talked a lot. >> what was he talking about? >> fights, brawls that he has been into.

>> i would go to the clubs with friends, they were hated because they looked different. and i felt the need to stand up for them. i would beat adults, i would beat big sized men with one punch. >> at age 19, he joins a notorious biker gang. storm says he was their toughest enforcer, raw muscle. boxing, biking, armed robbery, whatever storm is doing he is always doing it to the max. his life is descending into criminality and chaos. storm craved insanity, stability. comes here, his local library and is drawn to the tiny religion section. he sees the book, the life of the prophet, mohammed. >> it is the moment when his life changes forever.

he pulls the book from the shelf and finds somewhere to sit down. begins reading. six hours, hundreds of pages. within weeks he is converting to islam. >> it changed me. it spoke to me. that book. this is the truth. the truth. i found the truth. >> reporter: he takes the name morad storm, travels to yemen, attends a seminary. learns arabic and a strict, uncompromising interpretation of islam. >> i was taught everyone else was wrong. >> and those that are wrong are the enemy. all he can think about is training for jihad. storm is white and european. traits that might help a terrorist living in the west avoid detection. he says he soon catches the eye of al qaeda's leader.

>> i was invited by osama bin laden to join up with him in the training camps in afghanistan. >> reporter: storm won't make it to afghanistan. but he names his son osama in honor of osama bin laden. >> he was a person who dared to challenge the americans. >> reporter: next time he is seen in denmark, storm is a different man. >> the things that he was saying was so extreme that some of the people couldn't cope with it, the stuff he was saying. so he was hanging out on the streets and preaching a lot. >> preaching what? >> he was preaching actually jihad. >> that's him smiling in 2005. part of a radical islamist demonstration and flag-burning outside the american embassy in london.

storm is hungry for real action. for jihad. >> he's been in a very hard core environment. >> he sees his opportunity when the journalist says he wants to shoot a film about mujahadeen. in yemen. >> the access that he gave me in yemen was very unique. it was crazy, some of the persons that he introduced me to. >> reporter: including the radical cleric, anwar al-awlaki. >> jihad against america is binding upon myself. >> they talked a lot about jihad, for example. again, storm was an extreme guy. storm was being talked down from anwar al-awlaki. >> talked down from an extreme view? >> yes, anwar al-awlaki was telling storm to chill out. >> yet storm wouldn't be calmed. he decides to join the jihadists in somalia. >> i had to join them for my religious beliefs.

>> reporter: he returns to denmark where he says he gathers military supplies, preparing himself for war. >> i said good-bye to my children and family. >> reporter: then, at the last minute a phone call from somalia. >> he said we have lost the airport. >> in mogadishu? >> in mogadishu, what does that mean? >> he says you can't come, it is too dangerous. >> what is going through your mind? >> so it is a last will that i don't go. i am so deeply disappointed and devastated. i feel betrayed, you know? >> reporter: betrayed by his god, unable to fight for his religion, he says. just as fast as islam had taken hold, doubt and questions enter. >> i sat down in front of the laptop and i type, contradiction. and i'm daring to ask this

question, i had to enter -- and i saw plenty of websites talking about contradictions in the koran, it took times to research them. but once i concluded that they were general contradictions, that is when it wiped totally away my faith. >> is that when you stopped being a muslim? >> that is when i stopped being a muslim in my heart and belief. >> year of radical brainwashing strip away in seconds, and storm makes a stunning decision to switch sides. >> i told them guys, i am no longer working for them. i want to fight the war on terror. >> the question now would anybody believe him? $21. could something that small make an impact on something as big as your retirement? i don't think so. well if you start putting that towards your retirement every week and let it grow over time, for twenty to thirty years, that retirement challenge might not seem so big after all.

morten storm has lost his faith in islam, but not his desire to fight. now he wants to switch sides to work for the west as a double agent. targeting his former friend, the radical islamists. he tells us he reaches out to danish intelligence agents. they meet immediately. the first order of business? room service. and storm orders what no devout muslim would eat or drink. >> i told him i want something with pork and bacon in it, and i want the beer. >> beer and bacon for a muslim? >> they couldn't believe it. they couldn't believe it with their own ears. i told them guys, i'm no longer working for them. i decided i want to fight the war on terror, and when i told

them i was on their side, he high fived me and said it would be great. >> storm is a spy master's dream. >> here you have so many different personas able to switch through the different personas in such rapid succession. >> and he appears to have connections at the top level of al qaeda. >> there was no doubt he was an agent and has connections. they really want to get access to him. >> storm says that danish intelligence wastes no time and sets him up as an operative, giving him a cell phone and about $2,000 a month. >> i said, yeah, that would pay my bills. and i was happy what i did. it wasn't for the money. >> according to storm his early missions are successful. in lebanon, predicting a jihadi uprising, in denver, helping to identify suspects.

he quickly becomes an agent in demand with other agencies, including the british. >> he quickly came up with ideas for them and in terms of being able to improvise and stay in character, he was perfect. >> storm says he is now on the radar. they meet inside a hotel in copenhagen. >> so the british want to use morten storm. is this heard of in the spy world like this? >> no, i think it is very unusual for everybody to sort of want to feed off morten, i think it is quite unusual. >> storm says the british and cia exploit his terrorist links, sending him on trips to kenya to meet african jihadists. >> this is a place they meet in a hotel in nairobi. right next door to kenya's largest mosque.

>> storm explains he delivered a blackberry to a tryst he says was wanted for his suspected role in the 1998 u.s. embassy bombings that killed 24 people. three months later, that terrorist was dead. storm says because of him. but his most important mission is yet to come in yemen. >> there was just -- the time -- i became an interesting person for them. >> for the cia? >> for the cia. >> anwar al-awlaki, american-educated cleric, storm calls him a personal friend from his days as a jihadist. anwar al-awlaki has been inspiring terrorist attacks from around the world. the 2005 suicide bombings, a london train and a double decker

bus, leaving 52 dead, two foiled 2006 plots, one to blow up planes flying to the united states, the other to blow up buildings in canada. and in 2008, a deadly attack on the u.s. embassy in yemen. and storm says he can provide the cia something no one else can -- access to anwar al-awlaki himself. he tells us the cia sent him on this dangerous spy mission in 2008, a month after the embassy attack. he goes to see anwar al-awlaki now hiding in a remote part of yemen. >> he is worried about security. but he is also worried about people following me. >> reporter: the mission?

give anwar al-awlaki a laptop, solar panels, a night vision goggle he requested. some secretly planted with spy software. then storm says he gives anwar al-awlaki another cia gift. $5,000 cash. >> he looked at me. and he tapped his chest pocket where the $5,000 were. and he said can we buy bullets and weapons? and i say of course you can. my handler in denmark, he said you know what? you have just been tested and just passed. because if i said no, he knew that this money was from the intelligence and he knew that they're not allowed to sponsor or to pay for weapons and bullets. >> storm is loving his 007 life. but as he drives away from this meeting with anwar al-awlaki, the tables have turned. al-awlaki has grown more violent and the world should be afraid.

>> anwar was wearing a green camouflage jacket. he has a dagger and revolver in his belt. and the kalashnikov was slung over his shoulder. i tried not to look surprised. the preacher had become a fighter. >> he stays in touch with the radical cleric. they share an e-mail account, messages written, saved as drafts. read but never sent. avoiding, awlaki wrongly believes, spy agents reading them. storm says the next time, anwar al-awlaki is even more paranoid and tells him to tighten security.

>> when i met anwar back in 2009, he instructed me to use encrypted message system, the secret used by terrorists all over the world. >> reporter: the message can be unscrambled and read only by the person to whom the sender has given a code to unlock it. jihadi spy craft, soon to be vital in storm's most important mission yet. awlaki is fast writing up the cia's most wanted list. and storm believes he has the perfect plan to trap him. using a european blonde as bait. >> i hope. when healthcare gets simpler. when frustration and paperwork decrease. when grandparents get to live at home instead of in a home. so let's do it. let's simplify healthcare.

this is the voice of american-born cleric anwar al-awlaki, a video obtained exclusively by cnn. >> the majority of people around are disbelievers. >> he is talking to wealthy muslim donors, hoping they will give money to support al qaeda. but this call is much more than

what it seems. this is spy craft in action. morten storm says he has arranged this call to demonstrate allegiance to anwar al-awlaki and militants. what he doesn't know is that storm is a double agent working for the other side, for danish, british and american spies. >> you should support, whether we're talking about afghanistan or iraq. >> it is clear to the west that anwar al-awlaki is a growing danger, infecting the minds of muslims everywhere. just months after the skype call, united states army major nidal hussein goes on a shooting rampage at his base in fort hood, texas.

hussein killed 13 other soldiers. hasan called anwar al-awlaki his inspiration. the cleric-turned terror leader takes credit. his website reads, nidal hasan is a hero. just one month later anwar al-awlaki sends the so-called

underpants bomber to blow up northwest flight 253 as it lands in detroit christmas day, 2009. >> a passenger tried to detonate a type of explosive. >> anwar al-awlaki is waging a bloody war against americans. more than ever, the cia says, they need him. >> america as a whole has turned into a nation of evil. >> anwar al-awlaki must be eliminated. but storm says his bosses from american, british and danish intelligence sources disagree on how to take out anwar al-awlaki, controlling the plan means controlling storm. in a bizarre courtship the spy agencies lavish attention on storm, trying to win his favor. first, the danish, winning storm on behalf of the cia. >> we went to iceland up to the blue lagoon, and we spent time up there. >> you were kind of chilling out quite literally up there, weren't you? >> yeah, we were. >> danish take happy snaps with him. not to be outdone, the british take storm. >> we had extraordinary good times. we went to sweden. we went dog sledding.

i said in a very expensive room inside the nice hotels. >> storm says he ultimately chooses to work with the cia, which supports his plan to locate and assassinate anwar al-awlaki, by using a woman as suspected bait. unbelievably, he has asked storm to play matchmaker and find a european blonde to be his third wife. storm's search leads him to the woman from croatia. a recent convert to islam, who now calls herself amina. they chat on facebook. >> european blonde, exactly what anwar wanted. and she asked me if he could help her to get married. >> anwar al-awlaki's mujahadeen situation says please try to speed up her travel into yemen.

through storm, anwar al-awlaki and amina exchange encrypted e-mails. it's a match, they agree to marry. storm says the cia sends him to austria for a rendezvous. they will meet at the bus station. in storm's most important spy mission so far he can't afford any mistakes, but almost immediately he is disobeying the cia. according to storm, the american agents have a very specific plan. walk by this bakery. take amina to a specific cafe that they have under surveillance. they want the first meeting with amina here in this cafe, realizing it is selling beer, no place for devout muslims, storm, without checking with his handlers changes the plan. he brings amina to a nearby mcdonald's, shows her anwar

al-awlaki's notes on his computer but the cia agents are angry. storm says they think he has gone rogue. >> i improvise for myself, took control. >> aren't they supposed to be running you rather than you running them? >> in the ideal world, probably yes. >> bottom line, the cia can't be picky. to locate and eliminate anwar al-awlaki they need storm and they are willing to pay. if his plan works. >> you get a quarter of a million dollars from the cia when amina crosses into yemen? >> that is correct. >> after seven weeks, storm is sent back to vienna for another meeting with amina. the next step in the matchmaking. he shows her this video from anwar al-awlaki. >> this recording is done specifically for sister amina, the brother who is carrying this recording is a trustworthy brother. >> what is her reaction when she is watching the video?

>> she is full of joy and tears. you do really know him, she says, you do really know him. >> then storm records a video for anwar al-awlaki in return. >> my name is amina, and i just want to tell you that right now i feel nervous and this is very awkward for me. >> al-awlaki wants a blonde european wife. the plan has to work. storm convinces her to break muslim taboo and take off her head scarf. >> this is me without the head scarf so you can see my hair. i hope you will be pleased. >> coming up. >> james bond, 007. you know, i just opened up. >> agent storm's biggest payday yet. but all does not go as planned. >> the americans refused to

speak to me for six months. oh no. who are you? daddy, this is blair, he booked this room with priceline express deals and saved a ton. i got everything i wanted.

i always do. he seemed nice.

introducing the world's first curved ultra high definition television from samsung. amina, the cute young european is getting ready to go to yemen. to marry one of the world's most wanted terrorists. >> this was better regarding this proposal. >> the sexy blonde is bait, an

unsuspecting sacrifice in a plot to kill an al qaeda leader who has inspired terror attacks in america. morten storm says it is his plan backed by the cia. >> it is unbelievable that he has been able to be so trusted by one of the world's most hunted terrorists that he would even become a matchmaker. >> if all goes as planned, the unwitting bride-to-be will travel with a suitcase that has a hidden tracking device. storm scrolls mission plans finalizing the plan to get her to yemen. meets at mcdonald's, 10 a.m. she needs a cover story to get to the embassy, a plane ticket and secret e-mails to keep in

touch. $3,000 cash sanctioned by the cia. if she gets to yemen, the cia promises storm $250,000. he knows it could cost the blonde her life. >> how do you reconcile that? >> she was an innocent. well, she wasn't according to my judgment of her, she was a ticking time bomb, running around europe and convinced what she wanted to. and if we could use her to get close to him, that is the way it goes. >> anwar al-awlaki dictates she bring one carry-on bag and one medium suitcase. storm says he picks a gray samsonite and hides the message and tracking device in the handle. as she arrives at the vienna airport for her flight the attractive blonde has no idea what she is carrying.

>> amina is getting on her plane for yemen, storm is hundreds of miles away in denmark. the honey trap plot with the blonde is finally in play. if the plan works, they will find one of the world's most wanted terrorists. storm tells us inside this seaside villa with his danish and cia handler, it's serious. eyes on laptops and blackberries, they are tracking every step to amina's travel to yemen. >> the atmosphere is electric, but hanging over the operation questions -- what happens if the european blonde dies, collateral amina makes it to yemen. storm recalls receiving a text message from one of his danish handlers. >> saying congratulations, brother, you just became rich. very rich. >> soon he is in yet another

meeting with intelligence agents. one from the cia is anxious for storm to open the brief case they brought with them. >> and he looked at me with a massive smile on his face, what do you think the call is? >> i have no clue. i didn't even think that there were three numbers on each side. come on, come on, he says, come on, think about it. i said, i don't know, i have no clue. he says try 007, he told me like this. >> james bond. >> james bond, secret service, he told me. and you know, i just -- it opened up. >> so happy with the cash, he took this photo of the $250,000 inside. then this, an encrypted message from anwar al-awlaki, an update,

it is about amina, we got married. anwar al-awlaki adding, "masha allah law, she turned out better than i expected and better than you described." >> she was a very pretty girl and he was happy. >> he was happy, yeah. >> but there is also an e-mail from amina, a bombshell. security-conscious anwar al-awlaki had told amina to dump the suitcase before they meet. leaving behind it and the tracking device. cnn contacted amina's family who declined to comment. storm says the cia is furious if the plan failed. >> the americans refused to speak to me for six months. >> no u.s. official here in denmark or anywhere else has ever acknowledged storm's claims of a role with the cia. the cia itself declined our

requests for a comment. the cia keeps storm sidelined even as anwar al-awlaki's killer crusade continues. sophisticated printer bombs like this. on cargo planes headed to the usa, luckily they're intercepted before they explode. storm says he gets a text message from the cia which says they have lost all track of al-awlaki. they are desperate and want storm's help again. >> one of my handlers, he told me that there would be a bounty for this one. and i would get rewarded with the $5 million. >> $5 million? >> yes. you would get paid $5 million for this. >> next, al-awlaki eliminated. >> the man known as one of the top terrorist recruiters in the world has been killed. >> and storm in the cross hairs of jihadists. who's going to make it happen? discover a new energy source. turn ocean waves into power. design cars that capture their emissions.

radical islamist anwar al-awlaki has caused terror world wide, london, the u.s.

intelligence agencys are desperate to stop him. morten storm, who says he's a friend, has tried and failed before to eradicate the cleric. now he tells of a new man, one in which an unsuspecting person is handed a thumb drive to take to al-awlaki. >> i informed the americans wouldn't send people over there to watch it. >> reporter: what happens next, unclear. then three weeks later -- >> we begin with the biggest blow to al qaeda since the killing of osama -- >> anwar al-awlaki is dead. >> his death could mean a $5 million bonus for storm.

he receives a text message from a danish agent code named clang saying"i'm so sorry but it wasn't us." the agent said the death wasn't storm's work. >> he said i'm so sorry. i said don't worry about it, just tell the american people congratulations. >> reporter: but two days later he learns more when he picks up a copy of the british newspaper, "the telegraph." sprawled across the front page, how america finally caught up with al-awlaki, the capture of a key errand runner was the key breakthrough that led to the al qaeda leader's death. >> i froze when i read it. i was like -- i had that ice in

my stomach. i said that's my mission. the dates, the time period, that he was arrested. >> storm feels he was the errand runner and he let's agents know he's furious. they set up a mission at the marriott hotel in denmark. inside the lobby, storm says he starts secretly recording as danish agents approach. >> i put my iphone in my pocket and i recorded the conversation. >> reporter: then inside a private room, storm says he continues recording as he comes face to face with a man he says is cia agent michael. >> either you trust us or you don't. in this case i guess you don't. we had our team, we had our whole project going, of which

you played the highest role. >> the cia tries to placate storm. tempers are rising. >> i don't know why you think that. why are you thinking that? >> first of all, it's about honor. >> now we don't have any honor? >> no, you asked me. i want to answer. i was the only one anwar trusted to do anything. i even sent him a wife. >> cnn has not authenticated the recordings. the meeting ends when michael leaves without saying good-bye. storm believes his spying career is over. that must have been an incredibly hard moment. >> yes, it was hard because i liked these people quite a lot.

and what i did -- >> reporter: three years later this is still hard. >> it's very hard. >> reporter: the blowup here is a turning point. trust between morten and the cia, if it ever existed, will never be the same again. the very next day a defiant morten storm pulls into this roadway rest stop near copenhagen. he is bitter and has arranged to meet newspaper reporter carston ellegard at sunset. >> he said, well, take a mobile

phone and what you got and put it in your car. >> reporter: storm doesn't want to be recorded, he is still thinking like a spy. yet he is about to blow his cover. >> i showed him my passport, he looked at it. i said this is what happened. >> reporter: storm wants him to tell the world that the usa is double crossing him. >> he was angry and upset and a little nervous because it was the very first time he tell anybody he has been living a double live. >> reporter: ellegaard tells storm that going public has consequences. >> i tell morten it can be dangerous and have consequences for good. the last thing i tell him, go home and think about this. >> reporter: he does and decides he's not ready to reveal his spy story to the world. soon he gets this e-mail from amina, al-awlaki's blond bride.

she asks if storm can check am i on the cia wanted list or no-fly list? cnn was told a threat warning was issued, warning that she could be dangerous. months later storm contacts ellegaard hears from storm again and storm because a marked man. jihadists in syria release this video, faces of enemies lined up on the wall, including a photo of morten storm. >> by going public, i knew

groups like that in syria and like-minded people anywhere in the world would like to see me dead. >> the american, british and danish spy agencies all declined cnn's request for comment on morten storm. to date storm's stories has never been publicly contradicted. >> my agenda was to change people's lives and i've done so. . so i was a bad spy, able to creating good results. >> a shift of extremes, from radical islam to top-level secret agent. now morten storm has emerged from the shadows, taking his chances in the spotlight, left with what he says are few allies

but plenty of deadly enemies. hello, and thank you for joining us. i'm rosemary church. and i'm john vause. we'd like to welcome our american viewers joining us. >> i explain to him, steve, close your eyes or they will hit you. they hit me and say to me "shut up, don't talk english." >> details about their captivity with isis that he says
